Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and images of your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
Así que deben hacer figuras de sus tumores y figuras de sus ratones que están destruyendo la tierra. Den honor al Dios de Israel, tal vez Él deje de castigarlos a ustedes, a sus dioses y a su tierra.
Los filisteos debían hacer figuras de sus plagas para honrar al Dios de Israel y quizás Él detendría su castigo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of 1 Samuel, the Philistines had captured the Ark of the Covenant from the Israelites and were then afflicted with painful tumors and a destructive mouse infestation as divine punishment for their actions. Their priests and diviners advised creating golden images of these plagues as an offering to honor the God of Israel, hoping this act of submission would remove the afflictions and restore peace to their land. This reflects the ancient cultural practice of using votive offerings to appease deities and acknowledge superior power.
